The first screen newspaper CTP system will debut Ipex 2006

Ipex 06 will be a hallmark of Screen Europe's entry into the newspaper market, as the company will launch the Platerite News 2000 CTP system at the show. The system that was most recently converted into a preprinted operation for newspaper printing, the Platerite News 2000 thermal platemaking machine incorporates Screen Technology's CTP technology for traditional printing.

According to the screen company's introduction, as the number of color pages in the newspaper continues to increase, people's demand for print quality is also increasing. This has led to an increase in the use of thermal plates, and a recent IFRA report reveals that the market share of thermal plates has increased to 20%.

The screen company believes that the Platerite News 2000 is a reliable, compact, high quality and highly productive thermal system that is particularly suitable for newspaper printing on single-drum rotary presses. For the newspaper printing industry, the high productivity of Platerite News 2000 is their ideal choice, and its rapid conversion capability in the production process is also very important.

It is reported that this plate-making system has a 64-channel laser diode imaging head with an imaging range of 290mm x 460mm (11.4' x 18.1') to 980mm x 685mm (38.6' x 26.8'). It can produce 84 wide format plates or 42 double width plates per hour.
